Important notes about your LCD  
TV  
To Display your LCD TV on the included Pedestal  
Stand:  
Observe the following safety precautions:  
1) Read and Follow the pedestal assembly instructions included  
with the pedestal.  
The following symptoms are technical limitations of LCD  
Display technology and are not an indication of malfunction;  
therefore, Toshiba is not responsible for perceived issues  
resulting from these symptoms.  
1) An afterimage (ghost) may appear on the screen if a fixed, non-  
moving image is displayed for a long period of time. The  
afterimage is not permanent and will disappear in a short period  
of time.  
2) The LCD panel contained in this TV is manufactured using an  
extremely high level of precision technology; however, there  
may be an occasional pixel (dot of light) that does not operate  
properly (does not light, remains constantly lit, etc.). This is a  
structural property of LCD technology, is not a sign of  
malfunction, and is not covered under your warranty. Such  
pixels are not visible when the picture is viewed from a normal  
viewing distance.  
CAUTION: Before beginning pedestal assembly, carefully lay  
the front of the LCD Panel face down on a flat, cushioned  
surface such as a quilt or blanket. Leave the bottom of the unit  
protruding over the edge of the surface and assemble pedestal  
as indicated below.  
Note: Extreme care should always be used when attaching  
the pedestal stand to avoid damage to the LCD panel.  
2) Place the TV on a sturdy, level surface that can support the  
weight of the TV.  
3) Be sure to secure the TV to a wall, pillar, surface, or other  
immovable structure. To secure the TV in this manner, use the  
included strap located at the rear of the pedestal stand. (-item  
20, page 3).  
Note: Interactive video games that involve shooting a “gun”  
type of joystick at an on-screen target may not work with this  
TV.  
To Display your LCD TV using a Wall Bracket:  
If you decide to wall mount your LCD TV, always use a UL-  
listed wall bracket appropriate for the size and weight of the  
LCD TV (- page 2) :  
1) CAUTION: Two people are required for installation.  
2) Unplug and remove any cables and/or other component  
Trademark Information  
connectors from the rear of the TV.  
3) Follow the instructions provided with your wall bracket.  
Before proceeding, make sure the appropriate bracket(s) are  
attached to the wall and the back of the TV as described in the  
instructions provided with the wall bracket.  
4) After attaching the appropriate bracket(s) to the wall and the  
back of the TV, remove the pedestal stand from the TV as  
described below.

Removing the Pedestal Stand  
1) Carefully lay the front of the unit face down on a flat,  
cushioned surface such as a quilt or blanket. Leave the stand  
protruding over the edge of the surface.  
Note: Extreme care should always be used when removing  
the pedestal stand to avoid damage to the LCD panel.  
2) Remove the jack pack cover on the back of the TV to expose  
the pedestal stand screws. The jack pack cover can be removed  
without tools.  
3) Remove the five screws shown in the diagram below. This will  
allow removal of the pedestal stand.  
4) Once you have removed all five screws holding the pedestal  
stand in place, remove the pedestal stand from the TV by

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV  
HDMIcable  
Overview of cable types  
Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video  
devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of connector  
types required by your devices and the length of each cable.  
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use  
with devices with an HDMI output. An HDMI cable delivers  
digital audio and video in its native format. This cable carries  
both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio  
cables are not required for a complete HDMI device  
connection (- page 15).  
Coaxial (F-type) cable  
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a  
standard (composite) video or S-video cable.  
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna,  
cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT input  
on your TV.  
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable  
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)  
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC to  
the TV’s PC IN terminal (- page 16).  
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of  
three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio and  
composite video output. These cables (and the related inputs  
on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow  
for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left  
(or mono) audio.  
About the connection illustrations  
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your  
TV in several different configurations. The connection  
illustrations in this manual are representative of typical device  
connections only. The input/output terminals on your devices  
may differ from those illustrated herein. For details on  
connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each  
device’s owner’s manual.  
S-video cable  
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video  
output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete  
connection.  
Connecting an antenna or cable TV  
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance  
than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable,  
be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or  
the picture performance will be unacceptable.  
This connection allows you to watch TV programs or basic  
cable channels.  
From antenna or cable  
TV lower back panel  
Component video cables (red/green/blue)  
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use  
with video devices with component video output.  
(ColorStream® is Toshiba’s brand of component video.) These  
cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate  
audio cables are required for a complete connection.  
Note: Component video cables provide better picture  
performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video  
cable.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control  
Programming the remote control  
to operate your other devices  
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate  
most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to  
operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not  
preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details  
on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 19.  
1
2
In the remote control code table (- page 22), find the  
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try  
each one separately until you find one that works.  
Set the MODE SELECT Switch to the type of device you  
are programming the remote control to operate —  
CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite  
receiver), DVD (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater  
in a box]), or VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo).  
3
4
While holding down E, press the Channel Number  
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.  
To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote  
control at it, and press p. (Also see notes below.)  
If the correct code was entered, the device will turn off.  
If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using  
another code.  
If the device does not respond to another code, you will  
need to use the device’s original remote control.  
5
6
Remember to set the MODE SELECT Switch back to  
“TV” to control the TV.  
For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:  
DEVICE  
CODE  
DEVICE  
CODE  
Note:  
In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on the  
TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are not  
operational, repeat the device code setup using another  
code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after trying  
all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate your  
device, use the device’s original remote control.  
Every time you change the batteries, you will need to  
reprogram the remote control.  
Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These  
VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has  
this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for  
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”  
or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

In some cases you may not be able to  
operate your device with the TV  
remote control. Your other device may  
use a code that is not recognized by the  
TV remote control. If this happens, use  
the device’s remote control.

Chapter 6: Using the TV’s features  
Note: A closed caption signal may not display in the following  
situations:  
Selecting stereo/SAP broadcasts  
The multi-channel TV sound (MTS) feature allows you to  
output high-fidelity stereo sound. MTS also can transmit a  
second audio program (SAP) containing a second language,  
music, or other audio information (when provided by  
individual analog stations).  
When a videotape has been dubbed  
When the signal reception is weak  
When the signal reception is non-standard  
The MTS feature is not available when the TV is in VIDEO  
mode. When the TV receives a stereo or SAP broadcast, the  
word “STEREO” or “SAP” appears on-screen when E is  
pressed.  
Closed Caption Reception Adjustment  
If reception is weak, the picture may appear blurred, and  
captions or text may not appear clearly on the screen. In this  
case, use this function to make them appear clearer.

If the stereo sound is noisy, select Mono to reduce the  
noise.  
Adjusting the audio  
To listen to a second audio program on an analog  
station (if available):  
Select SAP in step 3 above.  
Muting the sound  
Press W to partially reduce (1/2 MUTE) or turn off (MUTE)  
the sound. Each time you press W, the mute mode will change  
in the following order:  
Note:  
A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those  
TV stations that offer it. For example, a station might  
broadcast another language as a second audio program. If  
you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the  
screen but hear the other language instead of the program’s  
normal audio.  
If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not  
broadcasting a second audio program, the station’s normal  
audio will be output. However, occasionally there is no  
sound at all in SAP mode. If this happens, set the MTS  
feature to Stereo mode.

Poor color or no color  
General troubleshooting  
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another  
channel.  
Adjust the Tint and/or Color (- page 35).  
Before calling a service technician, please check this section  
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you can  
try.  
Poor composite or S-video picture  
If the poor picture occurs when the TV is connected to an  
external A/V device (e.g., DVD player, video game  
system, set-top box, etc.) try using a ColorStream or  
HDMI video connection instead.  
Black box on screen  
The Closed Caption feature is set to one of the Text  
modes (T1, T2, T3, or T4). Set the Closed Caption  
feature to Off (- page 37).  
Picture and sound are out of sync  
As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare  
instances, when viewing certain content (e.g.. television  
broadcasts, video games, DVDs), you may notice that the  
sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This  
phenomenon can be caused by various factors including,  
without limitation, video processing within the TV, video  
processing in an attached gaming system, and video  
processing or different compression rates used by  
broadcasters in their programming. You may want to try  
one or more of the following suggestions, which may  
help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:  
– If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a  
programmable audio delay feature, use this feature  
to help synchronize the sound to the picture.  
– If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV  
channels, please contact your local broadcast,  
cable, or satellite provider to inform them of this  
issue.

(- page 30). If no device is connected, no picture will  
display when you select that particular input source. For  
device connection details, see page 10.  
Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional  
outdoor antenna (if applicable).  
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another  
channel.  
Adjust the picture qualities (- page 35).  
If you are using a VCR, make sure L on the remote  
control is set correctly (- page 19).  
Do not connect both a standard video cable and an  
S-video cable to the VIDEO-2 inputs at the same time  
(- page 12).  
Sound problems  
Check the antenna/cable connections (- page 10).  
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another  
channel.  
The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.  
If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to  
Stereo mode (- page 38).  
If you are not receiving a second audio program from a  
known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set to  
SAP mode (- page 38).  
If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program  
you are watching (such as music or a foreign language),  
the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo  
mode (- page 38).  
Noisy picture  
If you are watching a tuned analog channel (off-air  
broadcast or Cable TV), set the CableClear®/DNR  
feature to Auto to reduce visible interference in the TV  
picture (- page 36).  
Video Input Selection problems  
If the program list does not appear when you press + on  
the remote control or INPUT on the TV control panel,  
press the button a second time, which will change the TV  
to the next video input source and display the program  
list.

Chapter 7: Troubleshooting  
Remote control problems  
Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device  
mode (- page 19).  
Remove all obstructions between the remote control and  
the TV.  
The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the  
batteries (- page 17).  
The TV remote control may not operate certain features  
on your external device. Refer to the owner’s manual for  
your other device to determine its available features. If  
the TV remote control does not operate a specific feature  
on the device, use the remote control provided with the  
device (- pages 19–23).  
Channel tuning problems  
Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device  
mode (- page 18).  
The channel may have been erased from the channel  
memory by the Add/Erase feature. Add the channel to  
the channel memory (- page 27).  
The channel may be blocked by the Channel Lock  
feature. Unblock the channel (- page 41).  
Closed caption problems  
If the program or video you selected is not closed-  
captioned, no captions will display on-screen  
(- page 37).  
If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear on-  
screen. If this happens, turn off the closed caption feature  
(- page 37).  
A closed caption signal may not display correctly in the  
following situations: a) when a videotape has been  
dubbed; b) when the signal reception is weak; or c) when  
the signal reception is nonstandard (- page 37).
